Antichrist Superstar is a promotional-only single off of Marilyn Manson's second studio album of the same name. The song itself is symbolic of the climax of the album's story, the point where the abused and wretched victim at the center of the tale takes on the identity of the Antichrist, rampaging the world and destroying anything in his path. This image can be conveyed by the song's aggressive sound and the frightening tone in which Manson sings, and could be an allusion to how his critics see him (as a threat to Christian morality and, therefore, the world).

Rover's Morning Glory uses this song's intro as the show's intro song/anthem.
